Abstract:		 An Archaeological Watching Brief was carried out at the Market Centre, Leicester Market Place (SK 58740 04430) by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) between June and September 2013. The work was carried out on behalf of Kier Construction in advance of the construction works as part of the Leicester market regeneration. Trialholes were observed to depths of as much as 3.3m, excavated initially to identify stanchion obstructions, then within the pile footprints to expose service obstructions. Overall the watching brief proved negative, producing no evidence of archaeological features or any finds. Pitting or other ground disturbance and probably of recent date was observed only in the north-west of the site area. Natural ground was exposed at a depth of c.2.6m across the site area with garden soils above, and below level this were seen only dirty mixed natural deposits. The archive will be deposited with Leicester City Museums under the accession number A12 2013.
